Autonoma, Solar Lighting

Autonoma, This solar public lighting pole is totally autonomous and presents the advantage to be placed in any isolated area where electricity is not available. Built with power LEDs which offer lighting performance and energy saving it also can be programmed. Smart with its detector of presence, when a pedestrian comes close, the light intensity of the pole raises to full power and decreases to a third only to spare itself, when there is nobody around.

Melting Light, Your Classic Chandelier

The idea behind it is to reinterpret the classic “chandelier” completely different. Daniel Becker, the designer, experimented with different lampshade forms which should reflect light into the room. He also created an optical unstability – the wave is thicker on one end and thinner on the other one, but you can’t see this at first. But this is the reason why it keeps its balance. Finally, he used LED technology which allowed the lighting elements to be behind glass because of its very low heat generation. Very beautiful Daniel !

Renovatio Concept by Confederate Motor Company

I’m a little bit confused with this motor design, where do I sit ? This renovation concept by Confederate Motor Company uses minimal machine, using the fewest pieces, moving parts and systems to accomplish its dynamic mission. The word “Renovation” itself means rebirth, which also represent the rebirth of their headquarters company after destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. The Driving concept was the creation of a conceptually flexible foundation to allow a place for growth and further iteration; a utilitarian modular flexible foundation.

renovatio concept

Conceived by the leader of our conceptual design team, Mr. Ed Jacobs, the motorcycle is at once primitive, bohemian, and yet highly technical. Renovatio is un-compromised, light weight, possesses enormous torque, is capable of extreme performance, yet has maximum real world streetable active safety. It is graceful in motion, yet potentially brutal. It exudes inner beauty through absolute follow through of truth of concept. Renovatio has great proportions, holistic brand gestalt, is original, impactful, alluring and elegant

Futuristic Landmark Bus Shelter (It Changes Color)

The Landmark bus shelter is the central component of a product family that has been developed as a uniform design concept for the city furnishing of Hamburg in order to convey a harmonious overall image of the urban area. Modern elements and clear lines enable a universal use of this bus shelter. Integrated into one of the two side walls is an advertising showcase for double-sided posters in the City Light format. The right side wall contains a lighting system that shines in changing colors. This provides for alternating light and color moods at night. Thus, the bus shelter is stage set as an item of street furniture and moved into the focus of attention.
